MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – Communist and socialist groups called for a "revolution" at a May Day rally in Minneapolis Friday, highlighting the growing influence of far-left organizations at an event traditionally centered on workers’ rights.
Some of those demonstrators denounced capitalism and pushed for the seizure of private property and the means of production, marking a shift in tone from past May Day rallies that primarily focused on labor issues.
Protesters on the ground outlined a range of demands, including rent caps tied to income, a reduced work week and the redistribution of wealth from billionaires. The rally, which drew well over 1,000 people, was organized as an immigrant rights demonstration but brought together a broad mix of labor unions, activist organizations and far-left political groups marching side by side.
Among the groups present were the Communist Party USA, the Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO), the Revolutionary Communists of America (RCA), the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) and members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), with numerous participants carrying flags and signage featuring socialist imagery like the hammer and sickle.
Members of Communist Party USA handed out newspapers and leaflets, including a publication called The Communist with the headline "Down with Trump’s War!"
Demonstrators carried signs that said "F--- ICE," "Abolish ICE," "Fight Trump’s Agenda," "No Kings" and "Stop the War," while others waved red flags associated with the Communist Party USA and held banners featuring the hammer and sickle, including signage from the Revolutionary Communists of America.

Yes,
Let us confiscate the properties of Soros, Stayer and all leftie billionaires.
They are so eager to contribute.
“The DNC’s Hamas wing has been quiet lately.”
The feature of people who have some overpowering belief, I’m a woman in a man’s body, billionaires are eating us alive, there are aliens living among us, whatever it is, they can’t stop taking about it. Or, in the case of people trained to be community protestors, they can’t stop protesting. Even when they’re not carrying a sign, they have rainbow hair and the nose ring. It’s who they are.
I guess a normie equivalent would be a retired US Marine. I’ve known several and you can generally tell from down the road that they’re “Marines.” They still walk and look like Marines even decades after leaving the Marines. It’s who they are.
All things told, I’d rather be surrounded by former Marines than people who have their special alternative view of America the suppressor.
The great utopian concentration camp.
Let’s have legal resident status, an oath of allegiance, and rejection of dual citizenship for anyone receiving public money or registering in any publically funded school or university.
They should just leave and go to a commie paradise
“reduced work week”
…0-0=0
Infamous for their massive thievery of tax dollars from govt programs, now many Somali community members, including workers and families, were involved in the 2026 May Day revolution activities in Minneapolis, highlighting communist-related themes.

Livin’ large on someone else’s money.
I like reading their Constitution and Bill of Rights...er manifesto. Destroyers. F em.
This is not good. Lefties are feeling their oats.
Eff them. “Come And Take It”
It’s time America went full Pinochet.
Don’t forget to add Reid Hoffman and Neville Roy Singham to that list of billionaires funding the craziness on the left.
Communist and socialism should be a felony punishable by death.
Remember when “kill a commie for mommy” was a thing?
Maybe it should be a thing again!
This’ll put a dent in residential resale.
